    Great show
    Love this show for years(since they had found out the name of the princess in the Disney Pocahontas movie was Pocahontas haha) love that they have opinions and I tune in to Blue 88 every day.

    Grew up listening to you guys
    Have always loved you guys but can we get rid of the oil rig commercial!? Mike I know you got some pull in that office, help the people (and the duckies) out! Let the Houston Astro’s radio station take that one.

    Erm
    I sometimes enjoy this show but Salk’s takes on the M’s are not particularly good. It seems like he doesn’t follow baseball closely enough to know what they should do. Ryan Bliss is a second baseman. Luke Raley is a fine first baseman. First base defense is probably the least important defensive position in baseball. If you want more in depth insight on the M’s by people who follow baseball more closely, you could check out Locked on Mariners or the Mariner Layer Pod. Shoutout to Lyle.

    Great Show
    I love the show. When I moved to Washington I didn’t have too many friends in the area and it was difficult at first but your show helped me find a comfort zone and feel like I was part of a community and I thank you all for that. Keep up the great work!

    Essential Morning Listening
    The Brock and Salk show has been a staple for my morning drives for years. They offer fair and thoughtful insight into our local sports, and do so without the bombasticness that we see in so many other sports shows. As a life-long Seattle Sports fan, I love that Brock and Salk boast hosts from each coast. Brock’s being from Puyallup gives him life-long experience and insight into the region and what matters to us. Salk’s being from Boston brings us a point-of-view that isn’t just the expected homer approach. Both are knowledgeable and they balance each other well. Their team is great, too. Always has been. Maura and Lyle are similarly insightful and balance the team with their own style and sense of humor. Brock and Salk always have interesting guests, and they are both skilled interviewers. Their replay of the previous day’s guest at 6:30am is appreciated, too, since my commute runs during their first hour.

    Awesome if annoying
    Brock and Salk have developed an excellent rapport over the years as they present various Seattle sports topics and opinions, mostly Seahawks and Mariners. Salk is at times extremely annoying especially when in “what we are talking about??” mode, but his endearing qualities win out, particularly stories about his family, self deprecation, camaraderie with guests and cohosts, and true passion for sports and highlighting the compelling storylines therein. And he has many great insights because he doesn’t just echo the predominant opinions of others and has sufficient self esteem to withstand criticism and still be himself. Brock is sincere, adept, and brings his experience as a professional athlete plus tv color commentator and family / business angles to his contributions on the show. Maura, Lyle, and repeat guests like G Scott are excellent, and their individual personalities come through on the show. Overall I think their passion for radio and sports, plus commitment to presenting each day’s show as best as possible, make Brock & Salk the only Seattle sports show I listen to. Blessings to the whole crew and keep up the great work! ps - when the Sonics return will Salk consent to talking some NBA?

    Stop reading ratings!
    Reading your ratings to start a show is not sports. Petty, unprofessional, and for those who want sports, not good. Please do better, the market deserves better.

    Daniel Kramer article
    How does a major sports radio go on the air say that Carlos Santana not signing with the Mariners is the same as the Trevor Story non signing. If you had done just a little research you would have known Santana started his career with Cleveland and his family is in Cleveland. This why I quit listening to your station.

    Why am I here?
    4 hour show with 4 jerks answering questions- one of which comes an hour late every day and doesn’t work Fridays. The other 3 are occasionally late and when they are: listeners are rewarded with tone-deaf singing. Mind you, this is a sports talk show. Despite baseball analysis coming from a northeasterner with crankiness beyond his years and football analysis coming from a marriage pushing left-handed back-up quarterback, the show is actually good. Eventually you’ll find yourself listening for 15+ years and question why you tune in every day, but still will because you can’t rid of them like you can’t get rid of some family members.

    Your Ads are terrible
    I really really hate your ads. They are terrible. You can decide to have better ads. Be more creative. But please stop.
  • jaerbear3
    Too much football
    Every single headline on this show is about football and I don’t understand. Football season is over. Baseball season has started and you guys are still talking about a relatively mediocre football team that missed the playoffs. The Legion of Boom has been over for a minute and the vibe is shifting in this city to a baseball town. Talk about what’s relevant right now. You have an exciting baseball team in your back yard and Brock and Salk can’t figure out content to talk about.

    Great Show!
    I’ve been listening to Brock and Salk for several years and I’m glad they are the morning show voices for Seattle Sports. They each have their own unique insight and opinions and know how to keep it light yet interesting. The guests they have on their show are phenomenal as well. Their show has become an integral part of my morning routine. I think they represent the Seattle market well.
  • Phineas Worrell
    Lyle & M’s Offseason Solution
    Lyle has been a fantastic addition to the show, specifically his mariners insight & opinions and he seems like a goofy goober. As far as the mariners offseason goes, once they sign Brickma all the Dipoto haters will be eating their words! Let the BIG DOG EAT!!

    5 Stars but…
    Great show. I enjoy the diversity of opinions between Brock and Mike, and even though they can be annoying at times, Salk’s intentionally contrarian takes are often humorous even if absurd; appreciate Brock’s lightheartedness and willingness to allow Salk to talk over him even when Brock knows Salk’s wrong; and I think Maura has a great sense of humor and the patience of a saint.

    Great show
    Great sports show. Brock and Salk are very informative and entertaining. I work nightshift so I always make sure to listen in the late hours of the night. Also because Mike said he didn’t like the thought of people listening late at night. So now I purposely listen as late as I can… Go Mariners
  • NorthWestLivin
    A nice glass of milk!
    The Salk and Brock show does it's job admirably. It's the early morning warm-up to get the mental juices flowing in preparation for the in-depth analysis that follows in the Bump and Stacy show, the true gem of the 710 empire. As long as you don't expect too much from them, it will never disappoint.
  • Seattle sports lovr
    The values of Salk don’t represent Seattle well
    I used to love listening to Seattle sports radio everyday. But Mike Salk in particular makes me feel like I’m listening to a 49ers fan describe our team. It’s so off putting and so negative an anti-family friendly, I find myself turning it off more and more.
  • Bradacuda
    Solid Seattle Sports Talk
    I can’t hate because I listen to them regularly and they are probably my favorite Seattle Sports radio duo. I think Brock and Salk have good chemistry and are (obviously) knowledgeable about the major Seattle teams. If you want a more in-depth podcast, go find a team/sport specific podcast. But, at the end of the day this is a radio show, redistributed on podcast apps. It’s hard to ever give that product 5 stars, because the four “episodes” each day are repetitive and inundated with ads. That all said, they are my go-to Seattle sports talk radio duo, and will choose them over pretty much anyone else to marinade over a big win (or loss).

    Great show
    Everyone on the show has great chemistry and is always a fun and informative listen
  • Austinslater25
    Love you guys but…
    If you guys don’t make the Monday coach interview better I’m changing this to 3 stars. After a huge loss where Brock complained about Grubb(rightfully so) you ask him what makes Ernest Jones a great leader? Seriously? They’ve become unwatchable. I know you guys can do an awesome interview and I understand you have to keep the relationship good but I think you can ask some technical questions that all the fans want to ask in a respectful way. Asking about his favorite leaders of all time, or Witherspoons tenacity is a waste of time. I think Mike would be good with good football questions. Maybe you have a contract where you can’t because I don’t get it. Love you guys but please consider changing the format on the coach interview better

    Great dudes (and gal)
    Been listening from NYC since 2012. Brock and Salk help keep me connected to Seattle sports and beyond. Love Salk and I now forgive Brock for not helping me put my dislocated should back in at Houghton Beach volleyball court. 🎼 playing with the boys 🎼
  • Justin Vester
    Great show
    I haven’t lived in Seattle for 20 years due to work moves, but still love all Seattle sports. This is by far my favorite Seattle sports podcast. Love the chemistry on the show. Salk is the headliner, but love Brock and Maura. You have excellent guests and talk the right amount of football and baseball to keep me interested. Salk gave you 5 stars! Your welcome!

    Awesome Listen
    Love the show! Great guests, thoughtful takes, and inside information about local sports. Keep up the good work Coach Salk!

    Sunscreen is annoying and swim shirts are lame. It’s up to you to make that annoyance-lameness calculation. Dare I say: do your thing Mike!

    Best Seattle Radio Show
    Brock and Salk have become the best radio show in Seattle and it’s not even close. One of the things that elevates them from all others is the fact that Salk can talk about baseball better than any other local person on the radio. My one complaint would be that they read too many stupid texts, particularly from Mariners fans. The average baseball fans knowledge about baseball economics is embarrassing. (Example: Lyle) Show me one owner in sports who spends more than they receive in revenue? If I could ask one question, it would be, who spends a higher percentage of their revenue, Yankees, Dodgers, or Mariners? My guess is it’s the Mariners. All you have to do is look at a map and see that a heck of a lot more eye balls in Los Angeles and New York than Seattle. It’s too bad MLB doesn’t share their TV revenue equally like the NFL. Unfortunately, the teams in the biggest cities will never agree to share their TV revenue, unlike the NFL.

    More Lyle please!
    Can’t wait for Lyle’s …man on the streets reports from M’s Spring Training!

    Best show in the PNW
    Best Seahawks and Mariner sports shows around! A little Gonzaga Basketball talk would be cool. I definitely could care a less about Brock’s and his Bow Down life but I get it.
  • MaxOnHawks
    be better salk
    Salk should create his own daily podcast called let’s trade DK. Do we really need to hear on a daily basis why you think we should trade dk? It is the most drawn out topic on this show by a wide margin. But nonetheless i’m a daily listener and a big fan of all the shows on the network. -max

    Thank goodness ranked is gone
    I said I loved this show and would write a new review when ranked was canned. Andddddd here we go. Love the show. Been listing since the beginning. It’s a staple in my life. Thank you for getting up early every day and providing some stability through the ups and downs (mostly downs) of being a Seattle sports fan.

    I have been a podcast listener since I discovered that it existed. Which would have been 2013 I believe. Back in the Brock
  • Dr. MindPretzel
    Solid morning sports radio program
    Pretty typical sports radio show. Hot takes to drive engagement, standard coverage of local teams (Mariners and Seahawks, not much Kraken, Sounders or colleges) relevant local and national guests and interviews. A few negatives for me personally is the hosts talking over each other and talking over guests during interviews. The first hour of the show generally has a repeat interview from the day before which is odd for a podcast do they not have enough content to run a four hour show?

    Hey Man….
    Cheers to 5 stars! RIP Ranked.

    No Salk Slander/Some Brock Hate
    Salk is hated on by everybody for good reasons sometimes. (Doesn’t like the NBA, hates DK Metcalf with a fiery passion) But he also is not scared to push back which is good. I used to see Brock’s face on the Seahawks preseason games and decided to hate him for some reason. But I’ve come around as long as I’m not watching the video stream because I will call the cops if I see his face. But overall a great show and Here’s the thing is the best addition in a long time. Thanks Maura. Lyle, do better for all of us please
  • Sousaryan
    Salk is the man
    Big fan of the show from southeast Idaho. Mostly only listen to Salk.. I get bored when Brock comes on sorry Brock. I think Salk is the anchor of this whole show
  • A12th man in Maryland
    Brock + Salk + Brock’s fingers snapping
    Urgency = finger snaps. Task of time = finger snaps. Playing fast = finger snaps. Anything that refers to getting things going = finger snaps. Brock and what I imagine are enormous fingers, consistently snapping away. Sort of annoying but strangely comforting…? Love the show.

    4.7 is a Reach
    Obligatory 5-star review from a loyal listener for a whiny Salk. Born and raised in the Seattle area, but now living in Phoenix, I listen to the show to keep current on my favorite Seattle teams because it is eclectic and somehow mildly entertaining. Salk is overbearing and unrelenting in his outrageously closed-minded opinions, but we embrace him like the weirdos from Portland. Brock’s wide set eyes fixate on “body beautiful” people because his massive hands resemble more ogre than he cares to admit and he’s jealous of those who don’t transform every night into their true selves - like he and his cousin Princess Fiona. However, we appreciate his many connections to the sporting world since guests agree to appear on the show to take shots at Salk (like we all wish we could), while sprinkling in a few nuggets about sports to camouflage their true intent. Justin is the cool kid, now estranged from the show to avoid Salk’s salty influence. Meanwhile, Maura stands out for being genuine and authentic, as exhibited in her comments about Kenneth Walker. Altogether, it’s consistent with our society’s trend to waste time on nonsense, but it’s captivating to listen to this cast that rivals the Adams Family. #takethebullbythehands

    Salk is right
    About the Olympics being cringe. And other stuff too I guess.

    Look, it’s just a pain in the butt to leave a review on this thing. You might think about giving instructions to the listeners. Go MacHawks!

    Listening since Version 1
    I have been listening to Brock and Salk since the first iteration when I was living in Seattle listening to Salk getting passive aggressive notes on his car parking in the street near his home. The overall cast of characters from every version have been a great mix with personalities playing off each other extremely well! Even with the exits and entries of folks to the show it has not failed to entertain! Keep it up everyone and Maura please keep everyone in-line, especially Brock with his four minute questions to guests and Salk’s rants Podcast listening in Albuquerque- thanks everyone!
  • Mrs. Nault
    Great show
    Salk continues to be a delight to my ears. My husband has been a fan for years and I casually listen when he has it on. I love Salk’s straight talk about our Seattle sports. Brock may be the softer spoken optimist, but Salk is the anchor of the show and the wonderful curmudgeon us Seattle sports fans need.
  • lol zach
    I’ve got a bone to pick
    Okay Mike, or actually I’ll call you Micheal. The dude is such a poser. He is a typical Seattle resident who roots for the huskies yet never setting a foot in the classroom there. (Not that anyone ever learns anything about the real world at UW 🤮) The show could be better and I can’t stand listening on hard weeks after the mariners stink or the hawks get the doors blown off. I enjoy mikes hatred of the Yankees. (I myself am a firm believer that a Yankees loss is a win for America). Man I hate the Yankees and the Astros. Anyways. Great show. Love the jokes. Love how uncomfortable Brock makes people. Justin is cool. And Mike, aka Micheal aka guy with no “man card” likes to make the show about himself and honestly it’s the pick up I need at 6:00 every day. Especially after a good weekend. (I considered giving a 1 star because you deserve it Mike but that would be too mean for the people who actually work hard on the show)
  • lueiebe
    Great show
    Because Salk complained. Great show with great coverage of the Seattle sports scene, look forward to listening.
  • AVA-Empire02
    Great show
    I have only recently just gotten into podcasts and I found this show and it has become my everyday listen. I was a fan of Brock since I was a little kid and had won a huskies poster in 4th grade, then he was drafted by the Seahawks and I became a big fan. Always hoping he’d get the start over Kitna. That was the reason I started listening to the show when I found it, and I have stuck around as an everyday listener because Salk tells it how it is and frankly has talked me off a ledge as a mariners fan quite a few times. The banter between Brock and Salk is hilarious quite often and I am glad I found the show. And yes, I have downloaded the Seattle sports app. Thanks guys!
